10 Drawings for Projection, 1989-2011

About This Movie

So, '10 Drawings for Projection' is quite the experience, really. It’s an assemblage of William Kentridge's distinct animated shorts, all centered around his Soho Eckstein character. The outdoor performance aspect adds an intriguing layer, blending visual art with the immediacy of live interaction - there's something special about that. The animation style is beautifully raw, often using charcoal and paper, which gives it a tactile quality. You feel the weight of Kentridge’s themes - urban decay, personal struggle, and South African history. The pacing varies, moving from frenetic moments to slower reflections which really draws you in. It's not just a collection; it’s a thoughtful dialogue between movement and stillness, very thoughtful.
